A Really Good Reason to Play Bass

I just spent some time jamming to early Chicago records on my Squier Affinity V Jazz bass, and I realized something.

I play because my band needs me to play bass sometimes, while our female lead singer is free to just sing.

I play because of a lot of other reasons, too.

But tonight I was playing for one reason, and on reason only:

Playing bass RULES!

Man, you can just jam out on one of these things, can't you? I was playing "I'm a Man," which is a pretty simple, but intensely groovy bass line, and I kept starting the song over because I didn't want it to end.
